Week 29

November 12, 2012

Hey everyone,

The highlight of this week was probably Benjamin. I told you the story of him running away last week and so we had been scared that this was going to be it with teaching him. But we had been praying a lot for a miracle with him. And so this week, we dropped of a card at his house with our testimonies on it. Then yesterday, he called us up and acted like nothing had happened, but said he wants to meet again and still be baptized on December 1st!

Also, this week we met this way cool girl from Germany named Michelle. She had been meeting with the other elders before, but because we are the English ward elders, we get to teach her. This week we did a temple tour with her. A temple tour basically is that we and the sister missionaries do a tour of the church right next to the temple and talk about the temple. It’s a really great spiritual experience for investigators. For Michelle, it was went really well and she kept asking, "What do I got to do to go in?" We talked about how baptism was a start and set a goal for her to be baptized next month. This girl is really good. She can speak 7 different languages (include Hindi - what they speak in India) almost fluently!

This week somebody let us into their house during tracting and he was really receptive to our message. He wants to read the Book of Mormon, come to church, get baptized and everything! It is great! That’s my first time having someone let me in their house during tracting.

The Book of Mormon is true! Joseph Smith was a prophet of God! Through prayer, reading, and pondering you can know this! No doubt in my mind.

Peace,

Jordan Chatman
